C3.6 Tier 4 Diesel Engines - Highly Regulated

DESCRIPTION

The Cat® C3.6 Industrial Diesel Engines offer the perfect balance of compact size, reliability, and performance. This engine is offered in ratings ranging up to 100 bkW (134 bhp) @ 2200 rpm. The C3.6 is designed to meet the needs of many industries and applications, including excavators, agricultural tractors, aircraft ground support, bore/drill rigs, chippers/grinders, compactors/rollers, compressors, forestry, irrigation equipment, material handling, mining, earthmoving equipment, paving equipment, pumps, fruit harvesters equipment, turf and underground mining equipment.

Installation

Smaller in size than it's predecessor, the Cat C3.6 is a powerful engine in a compact and easily integrated size that saves OEMs valuable time and costs. With flexible aftertreatment mounting options and a simplfied engine installation process, the C3.6 can be placed into a wide variety of applications with agility and speed.

Advanced Features

What would you do with 5% more power density and 12% more torque? The C3.6 uses the latest in technology to bring OEMs the most efficient and powerful engine—even at peak performance—when compared to the previous engine model.

Broad Application Range

The Cat® C3.6 engine meets U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final, EU Stage V, and Japan 2014 emission standards

Ideal for industrial, agricultural and construction applications such as:

• Excavators
• Pumps
• Compressors
• Chippers
• Grinders
• Asphalt paving equipment
• Hydraulic power unit
• Bore rigs
• Drill rigs
• Tractors
• Telehandlers
 

Total Cost of Ownership

Owning and operating equipment is a big investment, so it only makes sense to get the most you can from it. Thanks to the chosen technologies of the Cat C3.6, owners can experience an overall savings in fluid.

Cat Dealer Product Support
